Product description
Starting over sucks. When we moved to West Virginia right before my senior year, I'd pretty much resigned myself to thick accents, dodgy internet access, and a whole lot of boring...until I spotted my hot neighbor, with his looming height and eerie green eyes. Things were looking up. And then he opened his mouth. Daemon is infuriating. Arrogant. Stab-worthy. We do not get along. At all. But when a stranger attacks me and Daemon literally freezes time with a wave of his hand, well, something...unexpected happens. The hot alien living next door marks me. You heard me. Alien. Turns out Daemon and his sister have a galaxy of enemies wanting to steal their abilities, and Daemon's touch has me lit up like the Vegas Strip. The only way I'm getting out of this alive is by sticking close to Daemon until my alien mojo fades. If I don't kill him first, that is.

« Obsidian » is the kind of book that once you open it, you can't close it! I've been completely addicted to it; I turned the pages so fast, that two days later I had already finished this amazing first novel in the Lux trilogy. I loved reading it so much! It's the best paranormal romance I've read so far…
Even if it shares some similarities with Twilight (moving to a new town, new school, and unrealistically beautiful students), the author, Jennifer L. Armentrout has created her own world and wonderful, unique characters.
There are no vampires in the book, and there is really refreshing ! Instead, there are other kinds of supernatural « monsters » !
The author has done a very good job with this book.There are a lot of twists and action scenes, but the highlight of the story is the relationship between the two main characters. I quite fell in love with Katy and Daemon's love-hate relationship.They both have strong personalities and their conversations are so entertaining.I couldn't help laugh whenever they talked to each other!They're really cute…
I loved Katy from the beginning. She runs a book blog and naturally I felt close to her. She could eventually be my best friend! She's exactly the kind of character I like because she is a little shy but strong, and she has an awesome spunky attitude!
What can I say about Daemon? He is unbelievably hot, but he also brought a new meaning to the word « jerk »! He was insulting so often that I wanted hate him and beat him most of time. But as the story progressed, he improves his behavior. I knew a good guy was hiding under his hurtful attitude! And honestly, who doesn't love bad boys?
Dee, Daemon's sister, is also an amazing character. She is the total opposite of her brother, she is very sweet and friendly. I really liked her friendship with Katy.
In short, I loved everything about this novel. I don't have ANY complaints. The plot, the characters, and the writing style, they are all perfect!
So I only have one piece of advice: READ THAT BOOK as soon as possible!
By Reviews By Molly 06 Apr 2014
So, I hadn't ever read an Armentrout novel before. I'd heard amazing things about her work, but I was just, like, stuck. In the land of the dead, apparently. I just never got around to reading her before. And when I was browsing my libraries digital books, I saw Obsidian, then asked y'all if I should read it. I got a good response of yes! Read it. She's amazing, and so forth. So, I read it. And my verdict? I'm in love. I must now acquire all things Armentrout for my personal reading library! She is amazing with a capital zing!
Katie and Daemon.....oh my god. I loved them both!!! I wasn't sure I would love Daemon as much as I did when I first was introduced to him in the story. He was a bit, um, overbearing? And Katie's reaction to him was a bit a stand-off-ish. But, as I read through the story and realized the connection they would have, I could look back and understand their attitudes. Ms. Armentrout incorporated them perfectly together for the story! Daemon was tall, dark, sexy. Katie was the book blogger (yea! She totally rocked, though I will forever out do her in my love of books!). Perfect combo.
And the paranormal aspect to the story was beyond incredible! Definitely not your sappy werewolf vamp novels. The plotline that Ms. Armentrout chose was interesting and hooked me instantly. I was turning the pages long into the night....I just didn't want to put it down! And the ending.....THE ENDING!!! I was so surprised with the ending (y'all know I don't give out spoilers so don't expect me to tell you WHAT the ending was!) that I was like, really? That's it? I want more and I want more now! I thought that to myself and immediately went to the library site and checked out Onyx! Yea. I can't wait to read it!
Definitely recommending this to everyone. It's a completely, utterly addictive read that you won't be able to put down. If I could give it more than 5 stars I most definitely would. Ms. Arementrout is the best and I can't wait to read the rest in this series!
By TeeganLeigh Mudge 16 Dec 2013
This was a really fun book. Loved the sarcastic humor and the love/hate relationships. interesting take on the Blacks etc race...(don't want to spoil it for some). I found it to be a refreshing change to the oh-so-popular vampires, werewolves etc etc.
The characters all had their different, loveable qualities and I have fallen in love with them all, a few more deeply (Daemon & Katy) than others (Ash & Andrew). With more than enough sarcasm and snarky remarks coming from the main two, there were a lot of loving, gentle moments too. Even some sexy. ;) The romance was not over-powerful or anything, not really anything that seemed over to top, but it managed to come through loud and clear. I loved awaiting what was going to happen next between the involved characters.
I started and finished today and I wasn't board for a second reading this book and am eagerly awaiting my friend to lend me the second lovely novel tomorrow! I am odering them for my very own as well. ^_^

Amazing book I freaking loved it! The love/hate relationship was crazy good, i found myself giggling all throughout. The characters were 3D and very realistic. Well done!

Favourite Quote: "To Daemon, my arrival was the beginning of the end. The apocalypse. Kat-mageddon."
I've read only one book by Jennifer L. Armentrout and it was her adult novel 'Tempting The Best Man' and I loved that so I decided to try out her YA novel and guess what? I LOVED IT TOO.
Let's start with the characters, Katy was just your average teenage who loved to blog about books (she was a nerd, just like the rest of us) so I liked her straight anyway. Then I loved her because of her personality, she was witty, sarcastic, and funny. She was an awesome main character.
Then there's Daemon who is just sex on legs (have you seen that cover!!!!) buuuuuut his personality is hot and cold. One moment he's flirting with Katy the next he's telling her she can't be friends with his sister. So yeah, I had a love/hate relationship with him. But overall I really did love him.
The plot was original in my opinion, but I did personally see moments were I was reminded of Twilight, but that's not a bad thing (I loved twilight!). The novel was fast paced, with a lot of funny moments and witty dialogue. And the ending doesn't leave you on a cliffhanger but it does make you want to read the next book as fast as you can. So I definitely recommend guys!!! 5 stars!!!

that rural development is not even on the govtA's agenda as one of the
ways to tackle this problem. They have a law of victims that may help get

It's much easier to work on improving life in the favelas than it is to
try to develop infrastructure and send in social services for the needs of
a massive countryside.
The favelas are large, but they are concentrated. Furthermore, they are
already right next to infrastructure that can be extended onto their
I agree that this is essentially a class struggle in Colombia. More than
anything else, this is about regional competition and struggle for scarce
resources. Even when you had the Cali and Medellin cartels, it was very
clearly politicized regionalism as the local economic barons tried to
harness the power of Bogota.
I think what we're looking at now is just a more decentralized version of
what was going on in the 90s. The FARC is less concerned about assuming
political power, but I think that is mostly because they're on the
defensive. But while there still around, they make tons of cash.
The proliferation of other actors is what is the most concerning for the
stability in this situation. That, combined with the poverty and easy
recruitment issues you identified, Paulo, make this explosive still.

eliminating FARC it was necessary to kill all of them and did not
address the cause of the armed conflict in Colombia, which is a rural
and social-economic one. There are plenty of poor peasants in Colombia
ready to be part of BACRIM and guerrillas. I worked in favela projects
in Brazil and could see the different approaches used in Rio and Sao
Paulo. While in Sao Paulo thought long term strategy by first proving
basic infrastructure in the favelas and have the social workers entering
these places first and only then have the police coming in Rio was the
elite police enetering the favelas with their huge weapons terrorizing
everyone in the favelas. If you live in the favela who are you going to
support? the drug dealer who provides you some sort of income and
protects the place or the State with its police and heavy weaponry
terrorizing you anf your family?
ANyway, while in Sao Paulo homicides in favelas decreased a lot in the
last 14 years or so in Rio weA've seen even the military coming in.

On the FARC, im totally on your page, mine was more of a naive
assessment because again i have limited knowledge (im learning lots of
things on the day to day process really) but i guess the meeting we had
this week and maybe the more to come could help re-asses the whole
situation. Personally i think it is also a topic that readers would be
interested about. my question would be, if before they even managed to
reach a deal and now they are nowhere near that, it means that something
has changed. Could this lead to an eventual defeat? (although from the
points you've raised it doesnt seem the case)
As for Bolivia, Morales obviously didnt get elected only because of the
vote of the TIPNIS but also of miners and cocaleros. But because 2 of
these groups are in the middle of the issue, one of them is destined to
be unsatisfied and maybe be resentful towards Morales. again this is a
point of view without background and maybe too focused on speculation. I
guess it depends how much is this issue important to both the TIPNIS and
the cocaleros

hahahaa. I just asked you this because in case we write an analysis
about it and write it some readers may think the same. haha donA't

Many of the votes Morales got were indigenous, but not only. His main
political base is MAS which is a broad coalition of social movements
that comprise of peasant leagues, cocaleros, mining workers, civic
committee groups and more indigenous groups. Of course, most of these
people tend to be aymara-quechua mainly, but he did not get elected
only because of his indigenous heritage. That was one of the factors
but there were other equally if not even more important ones like his
support to the coca growers, economic nationalism like the
natioanlization of the gas reserves, etc..
On the FARC issue, I think it is an issue that us as a company need to
reassess them. Although FARC is not the same as in the 1990A's when
they almost reached a deal with govt (Caguan negotiations) to split
the country in half and they have seriously been weakened by UribeA's
administration, they havenA't been fragmented and lost its structure.
they even have now some former paramilitary people collaborating with
them. Their attacks to the port of Tumaco is increasing FARC lost
thier ideology and political project from the past but are big in drug
trafficking and seizing some rural areas. The problem with armed
conflict in Colombia is a rural one and Uribe and now Santos havenA't
been able to develop the rural areas and deal with this problem. While
the rural development continue to be ignored in Colombia, there will
be armed conflict in Colombia. It may not be able to hit Casa de
Narino, but it will be able to control large portions of the rural
areas of Colombia.

I don't think Morales has a strong political base because lots of the
votes he acquired back in the elections were "indigenous" and because
his public opinion isnt really at its top. Also regardless of what
happends, and according to recent updates the road wont be made,
either one of his sides (cocaleros or "indigenous") will not be happy
with the decision taken.
P.S i used the word "indigenous" like that so as not to generalize
because of what you explained to me before.
For Brazil's influence to Bolivia, I personally do not posses as much
knowledge as others in the company. However considering that the
project is solely Brazilian financed and the economic benefits could
be important (pacific opening) I sort of see Brazil pushing to make
the road, if not why putting Morales in this position in the first
place. Everyone knew that the "indigenous" would be displeased with
Time frame for FARC, i personally do not think its goin to be short
term (but again my knowldge is pretty limited) but it still would be
interesting to see what could potentially happen, and i agree with you
that they have their "hits" as well, however in order to make my point
across i singled out the events that went against them. Also i don't
think that if FARC attacks and kill soldiers its a big deal, there is
a big difference between attacking because you're being cornered, and
attack because your trying to move forward. the way i perceive it now,
is that FARC is on the defensive.
As for the Brazil comment, it was a grammatical way not to repeat
Brazil all the time, and the first thing that came to mind was former
Brazilian colony, its history. Nonethless I didnt mean to hurt
anyone's feelings. I love Brazil and in case you didn't like that
reference I'll change it and I'm sorry.

Dr. Navarrete Case
On October 17th a very important update on Chaveza**s health leaked
through Milenio Semanal (a Mexican weekly). The surgeon Salvador
Navarrete Aulestia traced in this interview the patient's profile
Hugo Rafael Chavez Frias, and the diagnosis is not good: the
President is suffering from an aggressive malignant tumor of muscle
origin lodged in the pelvis. Life expectancy in these cases can be
up to two years. Navarrete has now fled to Colombia and just this
morning he sent an open letter, in which he declared that his
intentions were only but good and did the interview for an ethical
purpose, saying that Venezuelans should know about the health of the
president and try to be able to foresee what is coming politically
and socially after Chaveza**s death.
Ever since this event there have been many speculations with respect
to this subject. It is important to remind ourselves that we cannot
assume that Navarretea**s declarations are indeed true. In fact,
Chaveza**s health still seems to be a state secret and too many
speculations have been done. Then why is this important? Given that
we cannot for certain say how much time Chavez has on his clock, I
think we should ask ourselves WHY Navarrete came up with these
declarations and if they are indeed true. In his open letter,
Navarrete states that he was in close contact with the PSUV and
mentioned to them that he was going to have the interview.
Personally it seems too odd, that the government would allow
Navarrete to say the President has two years to live. On the other
hand however, 2 years would symbolize the possibility for the
President to run for elections, win them and then comfortably allow
his vice-president (I would expect maybe Maduro to take that charge,
considering the amount of references made by Chavez) to carry on the
rule of Venezuela. Was Navarrete paid to have that interview, or was
he really being honest and patriotic as he states? Chaveza**s health
is a major factor to take into consideration when dealing with
Venezuela, and monitoring updates with respect to this case can help
understand the dynamics behind the scenes.
Moralesa** Headache
Approximately at the end of August heavy protests started in
Bolivia. Specifically, the indigenous population protested against
the construction of a Brazilian funded road that stretches from
Trinidad, Beni department, through TIPNIS (Territorio IndAgena
Parque Nacional Isiboro SA(c)cure) into Cochabamba, Cochabamba
department. The road is approximately 185-mile long and costs around
420 million dollars. The most controversial section of the road runs
through the TIPNIS natural area. The indigenous peoples who live in
that area are guaranteed by constitutional right to be able to
govern the area independently of the central government and believe
that the construction of this road goes against their rights. The
protesters started a march all the way to La Paz and on the 20th of
October they reached the capital and gathered in Plaza Murillo in
front of the President's palace to demand the suspension of the road
Clearly Morales is stuck between two fires and struggles to
understand what the best solution for him would be. On one hand, the
road is of major importance to him as the Cocaleros, who have been
supporting him, have major trade in that area. Furthermore Brazil is
exerting pressure, as this would allow the former Portuguese colony
to have easier access to the Pacific. On the other hand, the
indigenous people were a strong base for Moralesa** election and are
now turning their backs. What is key to point out is that Morales
doesna**t have a strong political base, and despite the lack of a
potential political alternative, he is now pressured. The protests
are still strong and after reaching La Paz, the situation could
deteriorate. Morales is at a turning point, and seems tied to a
chair. Regardless of what decisions will be made, he will come out
of this issue weaker and possibly his Presidential status will be
endangered. Both the support of the Cocaleros and the Indigenous is
essential, but both sides cannot be satisfied and Morales is facing
a crossroads.
US-Mexico Relations
In the past month, US-Mexico relations have had various ups and
downs. Specifically, we have 3 different events that resulted in
increasing frictions between these two nations. First off, on
October 3rd, US governor Rick Perry proposed to send in Mexico US
troops in order to settle the drug cartel war that is tearing apart
the Hispanic country. A prompt response by the Mexico's ambassador
to the United States, Arturo Sarukhan, rejected this idea
categorically. The 2nd event that took place refers to the recently
signed deal between Mexico and US, allowing Mexican trucks to cross
over the border with the US. The deal was always postponed by the
US, and on October 12th the Ministry of Economy, Bruno Ferrari
threatened to apply tariffs to new US products if the US violated
the agreement to resume cross-border transportation between the two
countries. Lastly, on October 20th, Mexican President, Felipe
Calderon, accused the United Statesa** government of dumping
criminals at the border thereby helping fueling violence in Mexico.
These events taken on an individual level do not per se seem to be
all that relevant. It is very normal for bilateral relations to be
rocky sometimes, however these patterns of friction between these
two countries cannot be underestimated. It is very true that Mexico
and the United States share a strong economic relationship, however
these recent frictions could hypothetically have repercussions on
the bilateral trade. Mexico is at a very important stage since
elections are taking place in July 2012 and the cartel war has
generated lots of violence thereby also affecting businesses in
Mexico. It would be in the US interest to not create any more
tensions with Mexico and maybe cooperate according to Mexicoa**s
standards, especially with respect to the drug cartels issue. Mexico
has always relied on its independence and it wona**t allow the
United States, or anyone, to be a a**bullya**. Once again,
political tensions are part of the game, but when these could
potentially affect trade, then matters have to be handled with
extreme care.
The Future of FARC
The FARC has always had a fairly dominant power within Colombia.
However, in recent times there have been several events that
weakened this entity. Here are the three most important ones. On
September 12th Colombia's security forces arrested a FARC commander
who has been sentenced for the 1996 killing of a senator and is
accused of taking part in the kidnapping of French-Colombian
politician Ingrid Betancourt. The guerrilla leader, Gustavo Gomez
Urrea, alias "Victor," was arrested in Solano, a municipality in the
southern Caqueta department where he and his brother Jose Ventura
allegedly led the FARC's 15th front. On September 13th thirty-eight
alleged guerrillas of the left-wing resistance group FARC
voluntarily surrendered while eight others died in combat after
ongoing military operations by the Armed Forces in central Colombia.
According to the army, the military operation that caused the mass
surrender of the members of FARC group 39 near Villavicencio, in the
department of Meta, represents a heavy blow against the structure of
the FARC itself. Lastly on October 20th, the head of the FARC's 30th
Front, Jorge Naphtali Umenza Velasco, alias "Mincho," was killed in
a bombing raid in the rural area of Buenaventura during a Navy and
Air Force joint operation.
Clearly, the FARC seems to having being weakened to a great extent.
The current Colombian government has in fact managed to contrast the
FARC and capture or kill important members. The big question here is
to understand whether the FARC is able to keep existing due to the
severe losses it has suffered. Undoubtedly this organization manages
to finance itself thanks to the drug trade that it produces; also it
has friends such as the Venezuelan government. Nonetheless, the
importance of understanding its currently military/security
situation can be of great importance. In fact, despite still
generating money needed to keep up the guerrilla, it is unsure
whether it will be enough to contrast the severe losses which have
been undertaken in recent periods. Furthermore the emergence of more
BACRIMS might have created a**businessa** issues that could hurt
even more FARCa**s profits. The FARC is definitely in a period of
vulnerability and it is essential to understand whether or not it
will be able to survive it.

I purchased a foreclosed house this year with a basic in-ground concrete pool. Although the filter system seemed to work OK at first, it has lost efficiency and now spews dirty water back into the pool through the returns whenever I vacuum. After trying multiple backwashings, I have now replaced the sand with the correct amount, checked the filter laterals, and replaced the slide valve O-rings, but it still doesn't filter well and still returns dirty water to the pool when vacuuming. The filter pressure has always seemed low (~8 psi), but after replacing the sand it is now at only 3 psi. Water flow seems good when I backwash, so I don't suspect suction issues. Pool specifics include: ~19,000 gallon volume, Hayward S244 sand filter, Hayward two position slide valve, one combined 1-1/2 inch suction pipe from the skimmer and main drain, two 1-1/2 inch return pipes to the pool. Any ideas as to what's wrong?
Thanks in advance for any help! |
Follow-Up Postings:
Is the pool swamped? That is, does it have a pretty thick coating of algae and other organic debris? Slide valves are not normally used with sand filters. Multiport valse are the norm. Most folks with multiports would vacuum using it's waste setting with a swamped pool. You don't have that available. Normal pressure should be between 16 and 18 lbs with a 1 or 1-1/2 HP Hayward, Speck or Pentair pump. Is the pressure gauge working correctly? During filtering, is the water in the pump basket moving quickly with a minimum of air? Scott |
Scott, the pool is not swamped. It is very cloudy but not much organic debris. I will have to check the operation of the pressure gauge. The water in the pump basket does seem to move well, and there's very little air visible. |
Are you sure it is plumbed correctly? When you did the sand change, did you add pea gravel? Water should be added first to act as a buffer. It prevents breaks in the laterals and manifold. When you changed the O-Rings, did you notice if the walls of the main tube were scored, allowing unfiltered water to blow by? Any looseness or stickiness in the plunger? WRT the cloudy water, was it caused by improper chemistry, metals in the water or phosphates? Get it tested! Scott |
Scott, I'm confused by your question about pea gravel. I followed the directions provided by Hayward to change the sand, including adding water to buffer the sand, but I haven't seen anything that says pea gravel should be added to the sand. Can you clarify? I saw no evidence of scoring in the valve body, but the plunger is definitely 'sticky' when I move between the positions. Is this an issue, and if so, what needs correcting? We do get the water tested weekly, and it continues to show OK. From what I can tell, the cloudiness is caused by the dirt getting recycled from the filter back to the pool. Thanks again for responding. |
Many techs put some pea gravel in the bottom, just enough to cover the laterals. It helps keep sand from blowing into the laterals, helps prevent channeling in the sand bed , and helps disburse the flow of water more evenly when back washing but it isn't a requirement, If you checked the pressure gauge and it seems ok, check the impeller. It may be clogged. This can happen with cracked pump baskets. Turn off the pump. I think you'll see a big jump in pressure. That increase will mean a LOT more water is moving through the filter. It also means that the cloudiness was likely caused by a poor filtration rate. Scott |
Scott, with your help I seem to be homing in on the problem. I opened up the pump because I couldn't get my fingers to feel the impeller, and although there was no debris I did find that the large O-ring on the impeller cover inlet was missing, which is probably a big contributor to the low pressure. Additionally I found that the impeller cover is cracked in several places where the plastic is worn to almost zero thickness, the brass ring at the cover inlet is very corroded, and the impeller is scored. Can replacement parts be purchased? Unfortunately I can't find any brand or model info on the pump, so I would have to bring the parts in for visual match-up. Finally, how do you get the impeller off the motor shaft? Is it a press fit? Thanks for all the ideas and guidance! |
Found out today that the pump is a Sta-Rite P4, and that parts are available. Still need to figure out how to get the impeller off. |
On the back of the motor, pry off the center cap with a small screwdriver. That will expose the shaft. It should be slotted. Using a wide blade screwdriver to hold it, you should be able to spin the impeller off. It's threaded onto the other end of the shaft. The pump may be better known as a Max-E-Glas II Scott |

"Slide valves are not normally used with sand filters. Multiport valse are the norm." Scott, I just read this thread and wondered -- now that azroyal is working on his pump, should he look into changing out the slide valve for a multiport valve while he's at it? If so, how involved/difficult would that be? |
Chahnging to a multiport would be some simple plumbing changes because the intake and return ports are in different locations. assuming the existing plumbing has enough space between fittings to be cut and extended to the new multiport. Scott |
Follow up to last postings - after repairing the pump we saw some improvement but still have the same issues: filter pressure is still too low and the darned filter still spews dirty water back through the returns upon start-up and when vacuuming. At this point I'd swear that the slide valve must be allowing input water to bypass the filter, but I've taken it apart several times and cannot see any evidence of damage or other issue. A pool tech has been called; hopefully they can identify the problem... |

hey azroyal i feel like i was reading a book and someone tore the last page out - i hope your problem is solved and would love if you shared the outcome with us... |
I have a Hayward pool with a 24" Foxx filter by Baker Hydro. The time has come on my watch to replace the sand and I was considering glass beads as an alternative. However.... there is a problem with quantity. The filter instructions say 3 cubic ft (300lb) of #20 Silica sand. We work in Kg over here so this equates to 136Kg (.084 cubic metres). Now, given #20 Silica sand is ~ 2.65g per cc (2650 Kg per cubic metre), .084 cubic metres equates to 222Kg. You see the problem? Do I put in 136Kg or 222Kg? It makes a significant difference considering the price of glass beads. Can anyone out there help? |

Chocolate Souffle with Orange Custard Sauce
Frances Janisch
Provided by: Alexis Touchet
If you want a showstopper, this is it. Everyone is impressed by a souffle, and this chocolate stunner has a silky orange custard sauce that puts it over the top. Use a good-quality bittersweet chocolate that has a high cacao content. You might even want to taste the chocolate before baking with it to make sure you like the flavor since bittersweet chocolates have varying flavor notes.
- 1 cup whole milk
- 1/4 cup sugar
- A pinch of salt
- 3 large egg yolks
- 1 1/2 tablespoons orange liqueur such as Cointreau
- 1 1/2 tablespoons finely grated orange zest
- 2 teaspoons unsalted butter, softened
- 6 tablespoons sugar plus additional for coating dish
- 4 ounces bittersweet chocolate (60 to 70 percent cacao)
- 3 tablespoons whole milk
- 2 large egg yolks, left at room temperature 30 minutes
- 4 large egg whites, left at room temperature 30 minutes
- A pinch of salt
- Equipment: an instant-read thermometer; a 4- to 4 1/2-cup souffle dish
- Make the sauce:
Bring milk, 2 tablespoons sugar and salt just to a boil in a small heavy saucepan, stirring until sugar is dissolved. - Whisk together yolks and remaining 2 tablespoons sugar in a medium bowl until thick, about 2 minutes, then gradually whisk in hot milk mixture. Return mixture to saucepan and cook over medium-low heat, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon, until custard coats back of spoon and registers 175F on thermometer, 4 to 6 minutes (do not boil). Strain custard through a fine mesh sieve into a clean metal bowl and stir in liqueur and zest. To quick chill the sauce, set bowl in a larger bowl of ice water, then stir frequently until cold, about 20 minutes.
- Make the souffle:
Preheat oven to 350F with rack in middle. Butter souffle dish and coat with sugar, knocking out excess. - Melt chocolate in a medium metal bowl set over a saucepan of barely simmering water, stirring occasionally, until smooth. Beat in milk and 2 tablespoons of sugar with a handheld mixer at low speed until sugar is dissolved, then remove bowl from pan and cool mixture 5 minutes. Add both yolks to chocolate mixture and beat on low speed until combined well.
- Beat whites with salt in a large bowl with cleaned beaters at medium speed until they just hold soft peaks. Continue to beat at medium speed, adding remaining 4 tablespoons sugar a little at a time, then beat at high speed until meringue just holds stiff peaks. Stir about 1 cup meringue into chocolate mixture to lighten it, then gently but thoroughly fold mixture into remaining meringue.
- Spoon into souffle dish and run the tip of your thumb around inside edge of dish (this will help souffle rise evenly). Bake until puffed and crusted on top but still trembling in center, 20 to 25 minutes. Serve immediately with sauce.
- Make ahead: Sauce can be made 1 day ahead and refrigerated, covered.

I've just learned that my site has over 6,000 outbound links.
For someone that's obsessed with Link Building strategies, is this the best place to start?
Am I leaking "Link Juice"?
Thanks Donal
Two, is that you're leaking.
The second, leaking, has numerous threads here indicating recently that stopping the leak helps their rankings. The first way, I've never seen anyone say that it's directly impacted their rankings.
So, I don't like it, but the emperical evidence seems to say that you should stop the leak.
I can't conclusively suggest that it was indeed the nofollow tags that were responsible--it could have very well been a number of other factors including cleaned up html source and the like. However, the nofollow tags were the only new item I added and hence the cause and effect in my mind.
Just my two cents.
Depends. If you have 1,000 inbound vs. 6,000 outbound links = you're probably leaking. If it's 10,000 inbound vs. 6,000 outbound = it's the natural "web".
Open directory. Lot's of outbound links. No leakage.
Exceptions: When inbound/outbound quality are not balanced. Junk vs. Authority
Wikipedia. No outbound links. Ranks like crazy even on competitive terms.
How would the open directory rank if they nofollowed all the links? Probably like Wikipedia does. they'd have no editors, but they'd rank :).
The nofollow tags is not necessarily what makes Wikipedia rank well.
>>>Wikipedia. No outbound links. Ranks like crazy even on competitive terms.
Wikipedia ranked well before they nofollowed the links.
So we've about 20-30,000 inbound links. Does that mean I shouldn't put the nofollow tag on my outbound links and keep my site looking "natural"?
Outbounds that are broken or go to parked pages do nothing for your site's credibility with your visitors. I would at least scan for broken links before doing anything else. I don't know of any way to automate checks for parked pages or moribund, out of date, sites however.

What is the Affordable Care Act?
The Bankrate.com financial term of the day is: "Affordable Care Act" or "Obamacare."
The law with the full name the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act is what's commonly referred to as Obamacare. The legislation signed by President Barack Obama on March 23, 2010, ushered in a broad range of reforms designed to make health care better and more affordable, rein in the cost of health insurance, and expand access to coverage for the nearly 49 million Americans who are uninsured.
The Affordable Care Act, or Obamacare, requires most Americans to carry health insurance or face a tax penalty. It also makes it illegal for health insurers to set lifetime and annual dollar limits on coverage, drop you if you get sick, or charge more or deny coverage because of a pre-existing condition.

Saturday, June 14th, flips, tumbles, cartwheels and other aerial stunts were commonplace at the Westfield ValenciaTown Center, as students from Waller's Gym Jam Academy showed off their skills.
Kids of all ages and skill levels took part in the performances, demonstrating the strength and coordination required by the sport of gymnastics. The goal of the event was to get the community excited about the upcoming Olympics, and to familiarize them with the intricacies of gymnastics.
While Waller's offers programs for beginners, they also have two former Olympians on staff, including owner and Coach Chris Waller. Mohini Bhardwaj also coaches at Waller's, and she earned her fame after winning the silver medal at the 2004 Olympics.
Waller and Bhardwaj also made time to sign autographs during the show

If you're a frequent online shopper, Slice is the ultimate tool you can install on your Android (and iOS) device. By crawling through your email inbox, Slice grabs all the details of your purchases, tracks shipments and your spendings, organizes everything into categories, deduces your shopper profile, and even monitors items for later rebates and recalls. The app has been available for over two years and has made enough of a splash that it just got acquired by Japanese online retailer Rakuten for an undisclosed amount.
The Slice Android app scans your email account for receipts and package tracking information, then consolidates what it gathers into a single convenient location. It's a great option for people who want to keep tabs on where all their orders are, as it's a much more feature-rich and comprehensive solution than that offered by Google Now. The latest version of the app, version 4.0, introduces support for tablets. Now you won't have to drain your phone's battery down obsessively tracking the location of your most recent splurge.
The Nexus Q has had a tough life so far – that goes without saying. Things just got a little worse for the handful of us that use (and enjoy) the Q though – Google has seemingly sliced streaming support from the latest Play Music update, further reducing the impact of the Q's admittedly very limited use case.
Some users have actually reported problems with Q streaming dating all the way back to mid-March, and Google today responded to a thread on its Product Forums with the following:
One of the biggest benefits of Android is, and always has been, the plethora of available software keyboards. Don't like stock? No problem - there's something out there that will make your typing experience suck less. But what works great on phones may not be so hot on a large-screen devices like a tablets, so there's basically a whole subset of keyboards - or at least keyboard layouts - in that arena.
Looking to make online shopping just a little more organized and manageable, Slice came to Google's Play Store today. The app promises to be "the simplest way to track and organize your purchases," and seems to deliver on that promise, efficiently and effectively finding, organizing, and storing receipts and tracking info on your Android device.
Slice automatically works with your Gmail or Yahoo Mail account, scanning for purchase receipts and tracking info, and organizes everything into a clean, easy-to-use interface.
Whenever a game as polished as Slice It! comes out, you pretty much have no choice but to download and try it out - Angry Birds and Fruit Ninja are great examples of such games, and Slice It! from Com2Us does not disappoint. Not to be confused with Fruit Ninja-like games where you have to slice fruit in the air, in Slice It!, you have to divide various shapes into equal sizes in order to advance.

I am overwieght and recently started working on lossing weight. I currently weigh 350lbs (down from 365lbs). Basically, I used to eat fast food like 5 to 6 times a week. I have limited my fast food visits to 1 to 2 (at most) visits a week and even when I do go out to fast food, I pick healthier choices like salads or grilled chicken options depending on where I go. Also, I removed sugery drinks like Sodas from my diet altogether and get excersize in the form of walking an hour a day, not including walking I do at work. I started 3 months ago and so far have lost 15lbs. How likely am I to continue losing weight with my current modification in diet in excersize and what additional things can I do to lose weight at a safe pace?

Rep Power:
From a manual I found online:
4.2 User calibration
The User calibration procedures:
• Linearise and align the wind transducer.
• Select the required wind speed units
Linearising and aligning the wind transducer
This procedure ensures that the sensors in the windvane transducer are
correctly calibrated to record rotation of the windvane, then
compensates for any small errors which may exist in the alignment of
the wind transducer.
To do this:
1. Power-up the ST60 Wind instrument.
2. Slowly turn the vessel through two complete circles. This
procedure automatically linearises the windvane. A successful
linearisation is indicated by the digital display flashing and the
buzzer sounding three beeps.
3. Hold down the disp and true/app keys for approximately
2 seconds to enter User calibration then use the disp key to select
the wind angle screen (see the User calibration flow diagram).
4. Sail directly into the wind and adjust the analogue pointer to zero,
using the vmg and tack keys. If you are unable to achieve the
required degree of accuracy due to sea conditions, and errors
become apparent during subsequent tack operations, repeat this
procedure to achieve alignment accuracy.
5. Display the wind speed units screen.
6. Use the vmg and tack keys to select the units you want, either
knots (KTS) or metres per second (M/S)

Leos at Convention
2015 Lions Clubs International Convention
Join Leos and Lions from more than 120 countries and geographical areas at the international convention. March side-by-side down the streets of the host city during the Parade of Nations; attend seminars and workshops; and enjoy event highlights, including three action-packed plenary sessions, an exciting exhibit hall and more.
The 98th Lions Clubs International Convention will take place in Honolulu, Hawaii, USA. The convention will begin on June 26, 2015 and conclude on June 30, 2015. Spanning five days, we have planned a great event in a fabulous location.
2014 Leo Lion Summit Overview
Leos and Lions gathered in Toronto, Ontario, Canada to attend this exciting event, which offered traditional opening and closing ceremonies, a town hall meeting, a networking luncheon, and various breakout sessions. Through one-on-one interactions, workshops and inspirational speeches, Leos and Lions had an opportunity to play a key role in building the Leo-Lion relationship.
Attendees enjoyed a moving keynote speech from Mr. Binod Chaudhary, a former Leo and president of the transnational conglomerate Chaudhary Group of Nepal. Mr. Chaudhary is the first Nepali billionaire to be named by Forbes and credits much of his business success to the leadership and life skills he developed during his time as a Leo. Summit attendees were excited to hear from a highly-prosperous former Leo who serves as an ideal role model for aspiring young entrepreneurs and business leaders.
The 2014 Leo Lion Summit was a success and provided an ideal platform for Leos and Lions to continue their dialogue about Leos as part of the Lions family, while offering Lions an opportunity to deepen their understanding of those who will one day join and lead the association.
Presentations for the below Leo Lion Summit breakout sessions are now available for download:
- Bridging the Gap: Making a Successful Transition from Leo to Lion
- Developing Leaders for Life: Leo Club Program Training and Leadership Development

Anyone with any insight into backup software? What does everyone use?
Many thanks,
I use Acronis Backup and Restore: Acronis backup software and recovery services in UK. Backup software for data backup and disaster recovery in Windows and Linux - Acronis
We have the Advanced Server edition but could do with moving to virtual edition.
Its dead easy to setup and use and as long as it working and happy its brilliant, however, I have found that if it goes wrong it can go wrong in a big way and be a real headache to fix. Must admit that v11 is much better than v10 was at not throwing a benny and ran problem free for a while now.
Veeam then. Brilliant as you can boot from a backup essentially.
Also lots of free apps and is being expanded more and more (such as the Exchange tool on beta at the moment.).
Does Veeam do physical machines as well?
Nope - what physical machines have you got? Veeam backs up by taking Snapshots and backing up the original state (but only what has changed). then removing the snapshot.
Backup Exec's would do what you want and its vmware offering is similar but not as good as veeams.
EDIT: veeam won't do backup to tape either.
Last edited by glennda; 7th August 2012 at 04:59 PM.
We use Commvault Simpana, it has agents for HyperV and VMware and for VMware works in the same way as Veeam in that it'll take a snapshot of the disk and back the snapshot up. For physical servers, it has the traditional agents.
We have a dedicated backup server with a 12TB DAS, the servers get backed up directly to that and then the data gets transferred to tape (LTO5).
Is that expensive?
If you're asking about Commvault, very!
The primary reason we're with it was because at the time it was either the only or at the least the best supported backup solution for SharePoint. That said, it is the best backup suite that I've worked with and I've used BackupExec (spit), Legato Networker and ArcServe.
Last edited by Norphy; 7th August 2012 at 05:25 PM.
What about off site back up? Just a thought. Let me know if you think about it and i'll get you prices etc
Server running backup software: Windows Storage Server 2003
Backup software [with relevant agents] Symantec Backup Exec 2010
Servers/stations backed up: XP [one station], Server 2008, Server 2003
The backup strategy and therefore the software you use really depends on what the expectations are in your Disaster Recovery plan and also your archive requirements. Different products have a different focus, for instance Veeam is great for fast restore of servers from a server failure, but is rubbish for long term archiving of files as it doesn't support tape. Offsite backup looks good, but there are issues of speed, data protection issues for confidential data or if they get hacked (it does happen) and also you'll have fun and games trying to do a full site recovery from it. Traditional backup software is generally great for archival backups, but a pita as a complete DR solution for quick restore of data, also don't forget you need a way to test your tape backups.
So, the way to go is to look at your disaster recovery and archival requirements, get an idea of expected disaster recovery times from SLT and build a solution around those requirements, don't just go and get a piece of backup software to tick the box that says 'we do backups' as that will bite you in the backside big style when the brown stuff hits the fan.

Zuma well received at conference
Comment on this storyPresident Jacob Zuma received a thunderous welcome from delegates at the ANC's KwaZulu-Natal conference on Friday.
As Zuma walked towards the stage, accompanied by provincial chairman Zweli Mkhize and Human Settlements Minister Tokyo Sexwale, the crowd roared his name and stomped their feet.
"Zuma, Zuma, Zuma," reverberated around the Newcastle Show Hall.
Delegates sang songs in support of Zuma.
KwaZulu-Natal is Zuma's biggest support base and home province and has the most ANC members.
Provincial secretary Sihle Zikalala recently said the latest figures showed there were 252,637 verified members in the province.
Suspended police commissioner Bheki Cele arrived to a warm greeting on Friday.
As he walked through the crowd delegates chanted "Ndosi", his clan name.

Dew Process have welcomed a new solo artist to the burgeoning roster; James Vincent McMorrow. The Irishman has left his home country, Europe and the USA breathless with his aching honesty. Now we're very pleased to be bringing his internationally-acclaimed album to Australia.
"Sounds both fresh and as if they've been in your head forever…McMorrow's debut deserves its success." – Q Magazine
"A captivating debut… An arresting journey from emotional trials to aural pleasure." – Uncut â
"Gorgeous…a similar beauty to James Blake's current hit." – NME
"There's a world of mystery in the mesmerizing voice of this Irishman… make's '11's best debut" – People Magazine
The self-recorded and self-played debut "Early In The Morning" is filled with beguiling and vivid stories; fables that move from a whisper in your ear to a mountainous crescendo in the space of a song. The stunning collection of songs were recorded over five months in an isolated house by the Irish sea.
You could be forgiven for mistaking James Vincent McMorrow's influences as other masters of his genre, when in fact James takes his cues from some literary figureheads. It is the inspiration rooted in the likes of John Steinbeck, F Scott Fitzgerald or Roald Dahl that drove his writing. Drawing on his childhood love and fascination of these authors, it's their take on the darker aspects of life that motivates James.
Having reached #1 in the Ireland album charts, James has gone on to play extensive dates across America and Europe, including a spot on the Glastonbury bill last year. He will be making his maiden journey to Australia in April when he will play at the coastal Easter festival Bluesfest. There are whispers of a few other special Australian shows in his sights also.
James Vincent McMorrow's internationally commended debut album "Early In The Morning" will be out via Dew Process on March 2nd, 2012.
Check out the fan-made video for album opener "If I Had A Boat" here: http://youtu.be/e2XPDP6KkkE
Having just released the first teaser 'Crazy' taken from the band's forthcoming debut LP due out mid-2015, Brisbane's Art of Sleeping announce an east coast tour of the same name. Shortly after their scheduled performances on some of the countries biggest stages over the New Year at Falls Festival, the band are set to take the stage in Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane this Summer.
Bernard Fanning offers up 'GROW AROUND YOU' lifted from his latest #1 album Departures. Berneard and his band will be stopping by the Fotty Show AFL Grand Final show on Thursday 26th September for a special televised headline-performance.

This is in the aftermath of two guys that hit up a Farmer's Market with AR-15s this past week.
I know I'll open up a "crapstorm" here by saying this, but while I'm in favor of open carry, I believe [again, my opinion only!] when in a situation where people are generally unfamiliar with open carry, an AR-15 at a city farmer's market might not be the best method to try and educate people.
I wouldn't have a problem open-carrying a sidearm there, but personally wouldn't have done it with a couple of AR15s.
I hope that position makes some bit of sense, although I know there is a disconnect in my position between the "right to carry any legal weapon" and "doing so is going to cause problems." I will admit, I'm not comfortable with this wishy-washy position I have on this.

ORACLE Arena
Attendance: None
Oakland, CA (Sports Network) - Stephen Jackson scored 20 points, grabbed 10 rebounds and doled out eight assists, and was one of seven Warriors in double figures, as Golden State crushed the Utah Jazz, 116-96, at ORACLE Arena.
Corey Maggette added 24 points and Kelenna Azubuike 16 for the Warriors, who have won two of three overall. C.J. Watson notched 14 points and Ronny Turiaf 13 in the win.
Deron Williams finished with 31 points and 10 helpers for the Jazz, who had a three-game win streak ended. Mehmet Okur gave 21 points and nine boards while C.J. Miles had 10 points in defeat.
The Warriors grabbed a slight 23-21 lead after the first quarter and boasted a 48-45 advantage at the break.
The Jazz tied the game just prior to the midway point of the third, but the Warriors responded with eight straight points to assume a 66-58 lead.
Turiaf sparked the surge with a free throw, Jamal Crawford offered three free throws, Monta Ellis added a layup and Maggette closed it out with a pair from the line with 5:29 showing on the clock.
"We always give effort," said Turiaf. "We're all trying to do the best thing that we think, it's just sometimes we're not on the same page."
Moments later, Crawford hit a couple of threes and a pair from the charity stripe to make it a 76-60 Golden State cushion.
The Warriors kept pushing and opened an 86-69 lead heading into the final 12 minutes.
Utah closed within 13 points before Golden State rattled off 11 straight points to take a commanding 105-81 lead with 5:26 left in the game. The home team cruised to victory from there.
"It looked like everyone was worn down," said Jazz head coach Jerry Sloan. "Our energy level wasn't enough to compete with them."

text: This week, NRDC presented a Growing Green award to Will Allen, Founder and CEO of the Growing Power National Training and Community Food Center in Milwaukee. Feeding an estimated 10,000 people from urban farms in Wisconsin and Illinois, Growing Power combines aquaculture and agriculture to provide fish and fresh vegetables to communities living in urban food deserts. The program works in a closed loop by collecting waste from tilapia to serve as fertilizer for the produce. At the heart of Growing Power is their youth corps program, which teaches young people, as Allen says, "how to grow the soil, how to grow the food, how to harvest, wash and package food, and how to eat it." Allen himself was son of a sharecropper who left the South but wanted to be sure his sons knew how to farm. After a pro-basketball career and sales work, Allen returned to farming with the purchase of a two-acre lot in Milwaukee. "The biggest challenge in engaging the community is because most of the people are people of color and immigrants who've been subjected to bad things around agriculture," Allen says, adding, "These are people who have the skills, but they've been burned." Still, he knows where the communities advantages are: "We have all of this land in rust belt cities…we just have to be creative and have a few dollars to equip people to be creative."When we caught up with Will Allen, he provided us with two simple, flavorful recipes that are favorites of his: fried tilapia and stir-fried collard greens.Fried Tilapia (or Lake Perch)Serves 2 to 6 peopleIngredients1 whole 1 to 1½ pound tilapia per person6 eggs1 cup milkCorn mealFlour (and/or bread crumbs)Canola OilMethodScale and clean fishMix 6 eggs with a cup of milk into a batter in a large bowlSoak fish in egg-and-milk batter for 10 to 15 minutesMix corn meal and flour in equal portions (for extra crispiness you can use bread crumbs and flour—or all three)Roll fish in corn meal-flour mix, shaking off excessHeat ½-inch canola oil in a large, cast-iron skillet Fry fish on medium heat for 10 minutes (5 minutes on each side).Stir-Fried Collard GreensServes 2 to 4 peopleIngredients1 to 2 pounds collard Greens 3 tablespoons olive oil (or equal amounts butter and olive oil)Salt and pepperMethodThoroughly wash collard greensRoll up greens and dice themHeat olive oil in a frying pan over medium heat and add diced greensSalt and pepper to taste (you can also add a little honey)Stir fry for about 15 minutes (less if you prefer them crunchier)

Consumer confidence toward both the overall economy and technology spending, as measured by the Consumer Electronics Association (CEA), both saw slight increases in February 2014. One component, the Index of Consumer Expectations (ICE), tracking consumer expectations about the broader economy, was up 0.3 points from January 2014 to reach 167.6 in February. "Consumers seem to be settling in after a long post-crisis adjustment," said Shawn DuBravac, CEA's chief economist and senior director of research. "Despite some uneasiness in the financial markets and some unrest abroad, consumers appear to be generally shrugging off news that would have weighed more heavily on sentiment in previous years." Another component, the Index of Consumer Technology Expectations (ICTE), measuring consumer expectations about technology spending, was up 0.5 points from January. February 2014 was up 6.8 points from February 2013. "Consumer expectations toward tech spending look strong on a year-over-year basis," said DuBravac. "The next 60 days or so will bring a slew of new technologies to the market, as consumers see products that were announced at the beginning of the year hit store shelves."
